aniBoom raises $10,000,000

aniBoom, the premier independent animation network, has just closed a $10 million Series B round of funding.  aniBoom was founded in 2006 and is led by entertainment and new media veterans. The company’s vision is to leverage the web and mobile platforms to create a production pipeline and an audience base that can fundamentally change the economics of the animation business. Today aniBoom has a network of more than 4000 independent creators from over 70 countries around the world, and features thousands of movies on aniBoom.com. In addition, aniBoom reaches hundreds of millions of viewers with its animations across multiple platforms through its web and mobile distribution partnerships. aniBoom has proven to be the ultimate talent search platform through its currently in-progress music video contest for songs from Radiohead’s “In Rainbows” album, for which nearly 1000 videos were created by the independent professional community.
